STEP 5 Operations S5-100U
Load Operation
During loading, information is copied from a memory area, e.g., from the PII, into ACCU 1.
The previous contents of ACCU 1 are shifted to ACCU 2.
The original contents of ACCU 2 are lost.
Example: Two consecutive bytes (IB7 and IB8) are loaded from the PII into the accumulator.
Loading does not change the PII (see Figure 8-2).

Transfer Operation
During transfer, information from ACCU 1 is copied into the addressed memory area, e.g., into the
PIQ.
This transfer does not affect the contents of ACCU 1.
Example: Figure 8-3 shows how byte a, the low byte in ACCU 1, is transferred to QB5.
